Huang Fuchen didn't know how he felt about Mo Rongzhan. He had always wanted to stay by Yaoyao's side, but he knew that Yaoyao didn't need him anymore. He missed the opportunity to protect her.
It would be a lie to say that he didn't have any expectations when he saw her in China. Sometimes, he hated himself for being so meticulous. Why did he discover Yaoyao's longing for Mo Rongzhan? If he didn't find out that she was still thinking about Mo Rongzhan, he might have kept her by his side.
He could only be her master. There would be no other chance.
Although it wasn't obvious, Yaoyao's smile would be different when she was by Mo Rongzhan's side.
But even so, he was still a little unwilling. Mo Rongzhan hurt Yaoyao and she forgave him too easily. He knew that Mo Rongzhan didn't want him to stay, so he stayed. It was good to make him feel bad.
"What does Yaoyao need you to do?" Mo Rongzhan smiled faintly. "If she asks you to be Mingxi and Mingyu's tutor, you won't be able to travel the world anymore."
Huang Fuchen smiled and said, "After so many years, it's time to rest. It's fine even if you don't go."
Mo Rongzhan raised his eyebrows and looked at him. "Then I'll have to trouble you."
"It's not hard at all. I'm afraid you'll be the one who'll have to work hard in the future. It's quite tiring to travel back and forth between Jin and Yuan," Huang Fuchen said.
"I'm willing." Mo Rongzhan smiled. Even so, it was better than Yaoyao staying in China.
Huang Fuchen sighed in his heart. Ah Zhan, I hope Yaoyao won't leave you a second time.
It wasn't the second time, but he wouldn't let it happen again. Mo Rongzhan said faintly, "Of course."
"Since you're bringing Mingxi and Mingyu out of the palace, I'll go back first." Huang Fuchen said. It was the nature of father and son, and blood was thicker than blood. This could not be stopped. Moreover, Yao Yao had talked about Mo Rongzhan in front of the two children all day long when they were in China. Therefore, although the two children had never seen Mo Rongzhan before, they were not unfamiliar with him.
Mo Rongzhan nodded lightly, carried the two children over, and took them out of the palace.
Watching the father and son leaving, the warm smile on Huangfu Chen's face faded. He shook his head in disappointment.
At this time, Ye Zhen was still in the front hall meeting Shui Yichen and the others.
"Heavenly Concubine, the Emperor of the Qi Kingdom has arrived at the capital and is now at the Honglu Temple. He has personally come to attend the founding ceremony of our Yuan Kingdom. The King of the Western Liang is also here. There is still no news from the Northern Dark Kingdom." Liu Zhanhu said to Ye Zhen.
Ye Zhen originally thought that Beitang Yu would not send anyone. Now, how could he have the leisure to come here? The civil strife in the Northern Dark Kingdom has not yet subsided.
"What about the Jin Emperor?" Lu Li, who was standing beside Liu Zhanhu, asked.
Shui Yichen stood there indifferently, as if he hadn't heard the question.
Jiang Dachuan stared at Lu Li, hinting him not to mention Mo Rongzhan. Even if the others did not attend the ceremony, Mo Rongzhan would definitely come.
"The Jin Emperor is already here, there's no need for him to stay in the Office of the Grand Herald." Ye Zhen said calmly. Everyone knew that she was the Empress of the Jin Kingdom. Since Mo Rongzhan had come to the capital, he would naturally live in her palace. How could he live in the Office of the Grand Herald?
Shui Yichen looked at Ye Zhen. She didn't seem to resent Mo Rongzhan at all. Was her character too soft, or could she really not forget him?
After being with her for so long, he felt that although she seemed weak, her character was not cowardly. That is, she was too deeply in love with Mo Rongzhan. Even if she suffered at sea, she was willing to suffer. Did she not resent Mo Rongzhan for treating her like that?
"Heavenly Concubine, this is the list of candidates for the Six Ministries and the Six Ministries." Liu Zhanhu handed over the booklet in his hand.
On the day of the founding ceremony, the name of the Yuan Kingdom would be announced to the world. In addition to her prestige as the Heavenly Concubine, the six ministries of the Yuan Kingdom's Cabinet would also have to settle down. Therefore, Ye Zhen had been weighing who should enter the cabinet and the six ministries for the past two days. The list was decided by her and Shui Yichen.
"Good." Ye Zhen took the booklet from Liu Zhanhu's hand. Now that the list had been determined, the decree could be issued.
Then, they discussed various matters of the founding ceremony. This time, in addition to the distinguished guests of various countries, the world's famous nobles and marquises were also invited. In short, this was the first grand event of the Yuan Kingdom, and it must be treated with great care.
This discussion lasted for half a day. Ye Zhen felt more and more admiration for Mo Rongzhan. The king of a country consumed his life every day. She was considered lucky. Mo Rongzhan had to do more things every day at that time. She didn't know why he was still so energetic.
"General, is there anything else?" After letting everyone leave, Ye Zhen looked up and found that Shui Yichen was still there.
Shui Yichen frowned and looked at her. "Heavenly Concubine, are you going to keep Mo Rongzhan in the palace like this?"
"Why not?" Ye Zhen asked faintly, thinking that Shui Yichen wanted to say something. It turned out that he wanted to talk about Mo Rongzhan. Ye Zhen's tone was a little cold. She and Mo Rongzhan were husband and wife. Even if he lived in the palace, what was wrong with that? There was no need for others to say more.
"It's not impossible." Shui Yichen looked at her with a frown. "You … don't you care about how he used to treat you?"
Ye Zhen frowned slightly. "General, you have some misunderstandings about Mo Rongzhan. He has always been very good to me. Moreover, this is my personal affair. It has nothing to do with the country. It has nothing to do with the identity of the Heavenly Concubine. It has nothing to do with you."
"Indeed, it has nothing to do with me." Shui Yichen said coldly. "It's just that as the General of Yuan Country, I don't want to see the Heavenly Concubine wronged and go to sea again in the future."
"General, you worry too much." Ye Zhen said lightly. "In the future, before the General enters the palace, let someone inform you first. Entering the palace like this will inevitably cause misunderstandings."
When Shui Yichen heard Ye Zhen's words, anger welled up in his heart for some reason. "What does the Heavenly Concubine worry about? Who will misunderstand? "
"No matter what the misunderstanding is, who will misunderstand? This is the rule." Ye Zhen whispered. "If there is nothing else, please leave the palace first."
"Aren't you worried that Mo Rongzhan has other purposes? When you went to sea alone with your two children, where was he? It's only been two years. Don't you remember the lesson? " Shui Yichen stared at Ye Zhen with resentment. He felt that Mo Rongzhan was too domineering. He must be using Ye Zhen more than anything else.
Ye Zhen looked at Shui Yichen calmly and indifferently. She was grateful that Shui Yichen left China to help her, but it didn't mean that he could point fingers at her and Mo Rongzhan.
"Great General, you don't know much about what's going on between Ah Zhan and me. So, don't jump to conclusions so easily." Ye Zhen's voice was indifferent. "In the future, it's best if you don't interfere too much with what's going on between me and him."
